Special Forces King “Prince” Zhu Quan dies heroically in a border conflict. Reborn with a full set of tactical gear and a 21st-century database, he becomes a son of Zhu Yuanzhang. Before the princes are enfeoffed, he volunteers for the harshest frontier in Yunnan and receives the title of Prince Yong. With modern technology and military knowledge, he sweeps through Vietnam, Myanmar, and India over the next ten years, avenging his previous life and expanding his territory far beyond that of Zhu Di. By then, Zhu Di has become emperor and is trying to strip the princes of their power, unaware that all the eunuchs and palace maids around him are Zhu Quan’s soldiers. Zhu Quan advances by land and sea, destroys the Ming dynasty in a month, ascends the throne, and founds the Hua dynasty. He becomes the new Yongle Emperor, then enfeoffs the imperial clan and expands his realm across the globe.
